Can canine be repositioned to fix tooth gap?

Q. Hi, I am 24 and serve in HM Forces. I had a brick throw at me whilst serving abroad and have two broken teeth, my left Central Incisor was chipped and Right Lateral Incisor badly broken with a “stump” remaining. To make a bad situation worse my right Canine was also pushed up. Ive had Cosmetic Bonding with some joy however they do come off! Do you think the pushed up Canine and be repositioned to effectively stop the gap in my teeth and therefore make a more stable platform for the stumpy Lateral Incisor beside it to have cosmetic bonding again. This issue is really getting me down! Kind Regards,
A. I guess it is possible to bring this tooth down perhaps with a brace. i’m not sure how much difference it make for the adjacent bonded tooth though. It might be worth thinking of an alternative such as a crown or maybe a veneer?
